As a young person I always enjoyed looking after younger children, as I grew older I started working in the creche at my church.
I studied child care at TAFE which contained a component which made me do some work experience in child care centres, where I discovered my real passion was working with babies and younger children. In April 2009 i went to America and worked as an au pair. I was responsible for 6 children over the 12 month period. I worked for one family with 4 children aged 18month, 3yrs, 6yrs and 8yrs. the second family had twins aged 3. I enjoyed working with the families finishing only to return home to Australia. Since returning to Australia I have returned to helping out in the creche at church, am a regular helper at the Kid's club (primary school children) and Mainly music playgroup all connected to the church.
